Walmart

[ss12]

Its's just the differents between corporations(costco) that "love" their work force and the corporations(Walmart) that their employee are just a number(greed).

guess costc o can afford that with memberships to everyone that walks in the store in this instances you should be beating up on sams not walmart

[ss12]

Since Walmart has been a major contributor in enforcing corporations to out sourcing manufacturing jobs over seas. They should have to pay wages comparable to costco wages.

So, I gather by listening(reading) what the Wally World h8rs have to say, then it aught to go hand in hand that Mickey "D's" should be paying a minimum of about what 15 bucks an hour for the pimple faced high schooler to hand you your fries. Course, you wouldn't be able to afford them either. If the people at WalMart aren't happy with their wage, they are certainly free to find employment elsewhere, aren't they? So in that vein, why should WalMart pay higher wages. No one has a gun to their heads to make them work there. Would one of you lefties please explain that to me?


Just out of curiosity, how many of you guys wankin' about WalMart wages own your own businesses?

Fortunately no. I saw the Kool-Aid for what it was and did not drink it!

Walmart will eventually succumb to inept management and will lose it's spot at the top and another more nimble company will take it's spot. History repeats itself.

If you think Walmart is "inept" in it's management, you're nuts! It is virtually impossible to make the profits they make and run a business of it's size by being anything less than highly skilled at management.

History repeats itself? What does that mean? When is the last time a company comparable to Walmart was replaced by a more nimble one?

I don't know about all that crazy talk but I can say that a former employer of mine flew to the wal-mart head office to show a new product that was selling pretty well in the area to see just what it would take to sell ther product at wal-mart. they were told only if it was produced/mfg in china they could not sell it for the same price the local stores were selling at unless they sent the job oversea's. the two guy's that went to the meeting got up and flew back. they still sell them in the area and wal-mart now sell's a very simular product. this is the same thing ford motor company has done with ther suppliers a local auto supple company was notified last week that the head office was closing them down due to demands made by ther number one customer.ford all the work is being sent to mexico,china and poland. I have lookeed in the area foe a union factory ther are none here the only unions are construction,plumbers,teaches and fire fighter. so I can't see unions being the problem 100 percent the greedy have to take ther share of the blame.

Lite inn, what brand of TV would that be? Assembled here is not the same as made here. Vizio is actually a Taiwanese company called Amtran technology. Elment tvs are made with asia electronics and assemled in Michigan.

Walmart has already help bring this economy down buy making US corporations labor force compete against communist China labor. Walmart has destroyed several manufacturing jobs here. Which has cause a ripple effect through the US economy. Walmart has got us right were they need us. We as a nation can't afford to buy nothing but their cheap merchandise from China. The Walmart owners are rich enough to get policies in play for their benefit, no matter what political party is in control. Walmart is one of the corporations that are controlling the government for the minority not the majority of the US citizens.



Why Walmart has helped bring this country down, it has helped a communist country become much stronger and powerful in the world. Keeping Walmart strong is keeping communism strong.
